superconducting supercolliders – thankless child lyrics

Loading...

the spread of seeds; the fall of leaves
a swarm of cells beneath the sea
a carbon+based machine
i’m you, you’re me, we’re sharing half
our genes, and nothing in between
but unlit kerosene

take r times b, they’re less than c
how many others could there be?
before you wouldn’t leave
floorboards, dead trees, our own
phylogeny, you think you will break free?
my little flame is clean

turn your back
turn your back
we fade to black
friction, drag
friction, drag
the quiet scratch

someone seals the latch
you’re detached; we’re dispatched
there’s a catch + you and i?
we’re attached
i’ll release my burning match
what if i had a twin?
how would you behave then?
what if i had a twin?
how would you be–
there are things i can’t
can’t save

and i’m relieved you don’t believe
the trappings that society
has told you that you need
you’re you, you’re free, i’ve rearranged
your genes, now they belong to me
(ignore that kerosene)

you’ll outrun
you’ll outrun
all you have done
metaphor
metaphor
will keep our scores

in the dark, i might tame
given names, waiting games
we’re the same + you and i?
we’re deranged
i’ll release my little flame
benefits less than cost
calculation of loss?
or just math as a gloss?
are we both lost?
there are things i can’t
can’t save

two four eight, six plus ten
tell us where you have been
your invisible kin
please select them to live
what if i had a twin?
do you think you’d save them?
don’t look, just begin

do the math, turn your back
you’ll ignore graphite traps
i’ll release my little match
metaphor will wage this war

two and eight, six plus ten
tell us where you have been
your invisible kin
please select them
all the things i can’t
can’t save
